Hello everybody !
I installed the new Explorer 8 on vista ultimate 32 bit. I then realized tyhat 3 to 6 iexplorer.exe are running at the same time in task manager, using a lot of CPU resource. What's the problem? I scanned my PC (spyware doc, a-squared.etc..) but nothing wrong was found, except some trojan that a removed, which did not help with my problem!
Some help would be very appreciated!
Thank you
Richard

try this article. It's not really a hack; it does a good job of describing the reasons for the number of processes and offers a solution in the form of a registry key.
